Our deepest sympathy to Lucille’s family. May she Rest in Peace.

Sorry to hear about Lucille. What wonderful neighbors the Pleskaces were, my dad Ed Fiedler and Paul worked together farming and helping each other. In the early days Paul picked our corn before we got a tractor in 1950. I’ll never forget the smile Lucille always had whenever we met and talked for a little bit. Very wonderful people…..Don
Prayers for all of you – deepest sympathies! Jim & Deb Virgl
So sorry to hear that you have lost a wonderful mom.
You all are in our thoughts and prayers. Aunt Lucille was always so full of cheer when we visited, good memories when she joined us for family reunions in St. Libory. She will be dearly missed, but there are so many memories to sustain us. We’re vacationing in the south, so we will not be there with you, but be assured that you will be on our minds and in our hearts that day and days to come. Tom and Jeanette Tichenor Derby, KS
Barb and I remember the good times we shared family history. We will miss her.
On behalf of the members of David City Branch #F621, FCSLA, I extend our sympathy & prayers. Joan Riha, President.

I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom/grandmother/greatgrandmother. She was such a wonderful woman. I remember the times we visited her and Paul, the amazing meals she cooked, and the love that surrounded your family. Lucille touched so many lives and I know we are all enriched by it. I wish I was able to join you today in celebrating her life but was not able to. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
